Which version of sendmail? Can you telnet from the Mac to LINUX_HOST? (telnet linux.host 25) And see a greeting from sendmail? Does your version of *.mc have something like this in it: DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtp,Addr=127.0.0.1, Name=MTA') If so, that tells sendmail only to listen on 127.0.0.1, which will bar any relaying even from local net machines _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
